...html> the problem shows up anyway. Of course, neither tag has any business being in the HTML body; they should both be in the head. Since you?re loading BeautifulSoup anyway, you probably want to include that as fix-up step in your postprocessing. Regards, -- Aristotle Pagaltzis // <http://plasmasturm.org/>

What's the difference between: <em>emphasis</em> and <i>italicized</i> and <strong>strong</strong> and <b>bold</b> It seems to subtle for my browsers. The only "difference" I've been able to find is that according to the O'Reilly book <strong> and <emphasis> are semantic tags, while <b> and <i>

Hi, I'm in the process of adding support for Markdown to a minimal CMS in Rails, [Railfrog][railfrog], which uses mime types to select appropriate processing. I have had a look through the archives but have not been able to see that a consensus has emerged as to what such a mime type for Markdown should look like. My reading of the RFCs suggests that it should be within the "text/*"

Does anyone know of any larger newspapers or publishing companies that use Markdown? Several times I've noticed glitches in web page articles, posted at larger newspapers, where emphasis has been indicated by underlines and have wondered. Robert McGonegal

I want to use fixed font like a code block but also use italics and bold at same time. For example in HTML: <tt>$ <b>mail -u <i>user</i></b></tt> What is the best way to do this in markdown, especially if I have several lines of content that needs to be spaced out correctly? Thanks Jeremy C. Reed

Hi All, So I just joined the list - first off, Markdown is a great format and we're using it in our online community project disCourse: http://discourse.ics.hawaii.edu We're using markdown for our wiki pages, stories, message postings, pretty much everywhere. One markdown policy that doesn't seem to fit intuitively for our users is the fact that embedded underscores leads to

We recently received a request and working patch for Python-Markdown which adds support for starting an ordered list with the number given on the first line. For example: 3. Foo 4. Bar would result in <ol> <li start="3">Foo</li> <li>Bar</li> </ol> I'm not opposed to adding this, but I noticed that no other implementation

Hi, I'm getting what I believe to be a bug. If I put the following in markdown: 1. This is a numbered list 2. Blah 9. This is another list item 10. Ok, weird bug here 11. It's really bothering me And when I run it through markdown.pl 1.01 I get out the following: <ol> <li>This is a numbered list</li> <li>Blah</li> <li>This is another

Is there any way to do macros in Markdown? Or do you have any other suggestions? I'm thinking of a few uses. One is to read back system stuff that might be global or session settings. Example Tell the user where they are coming from, time etc You are %%USERNAME%% Logged in at %%LOGINTIME%% Your browser is %%HTTP{"User-Agent"}%% You are accessing from

Noticed the patterns for setext style headings are: ^(.+)[ \t]*\n=+[ \t]*\n+ Should be: ^(.+?)[ \t]*\n=+[ \t]*\n+

Howdy, The following bug report was sent to the Debian BTS. Is there a way to have a code block immediately follow an unordered list? ----- Forwarded message from Joey Hess <joeyh at debian.org> ----- Consider this markdown: * bla * bla2 this should be treated as code block and it is not ... but if bullets are not above this, it works If the first code block is indented with

Hi All, I was wondering what people thought to the idea of getting "[markdown]" added to the subject lines of all the mails to the markdown mailing list? It would certainly help me out with my email organisation. Many thanks CHEERS> SAM

(In the following I write <tab> because my MUA strips tabs) Consider the code: ---- Paragraph <tab> <tab> Line <tab> ---- or even: ---- Paragraph <tab><space> <tab> Line <tab> ---- Markdown.pl ignores the leading blank line in the code block. Is this intended behaviour? -- Andrea Censi "Life is too important to be taken

I have a doubt about the standard syntax (actually, it's the only test that maruku doesn't pass yet). Lists MUST be preceded by an empty line? So the following are only 4 paragraphs, without list items, right? ----------- Paragraph and no space: * ciao Paragraph and 1 space: * ciao Paragraph and 3 spaces: * ciao Paragraph and 4 spaces: * ciao ----------- In other words, a

Hi, Is markdown a good language to use in a web forum application? How does it compare to bbcode in features and ease-of-use for non-technical users? I'm thinking of using jquery-markedit in that forum app. Thanks, -- http://www.cruisefish.net

We recently received the following bug report for the python-markdown implementation: > The "&" are escaped in URLs. > > An example: > [Link](http://www.site.com/?param1=value1&param2=value1) > > Should output: > <a href="http://www.site.com/?param1=value1&param2=value1">Link</a> > > Currently outputs: > <a

Hi, first of all thanks for such a great syntax, so far it's the best I know! I have a document with quite long titles and I was wondering if it was possible to hard-break them: e.g.: This is a veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrry long title ======================================================= would be This is a veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrry
